Former Serbian State Security Service official Franko Simatovic’s lawyer told the UN court that the service had nothing to do with wartime violence in Bosnian municipalities which Serb forces took over in spring 1992. Franko Simatovic’s defence lawyer told the Mechanism for International Tribunals in The Hague on Thursday that the Serbian State Security Service “had no connection with municipalities in Bosnia and Herzegovina, particularly Doboj, in terms of sending manpower or equipment” in spring 1992 when crimes were committed.
